Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected.

A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves.

A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.

The real leader has no need to lead - he is content to point the way.

If you command wisely, you'll be obeyed cheerfully.

Leaders must be close enough to relate to others, but far enough ahead to motivate them.

Management is about arranging and telling. Leadership is about nurturing and enhancing.

I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles but today it means getting along with people.

Effective leadership is not about making speeches or being liked leadership is defined by results not attributes.

Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude and in actions.
